Cha chaan teng owners revealed that condensed milk, evaporated milk, tea, coffee powder, gas, rent, and employee salaries have all increased in price, and plastic bags used for packaging have also increased in price. In desperation, the industry can only decide to increase the price of beverages.
The price of 25 kilograms of flour has also been increased from January, which will also put pressure on the prices of noodles, rice noodles, and kway teows. Previously, the price of flour for a 25kg package was RM47 to RM51 and will increase by RM5 from 2022. The latest price will be RM52 to RM56.
